DeMolay's third cardinal virtue is courtesy (courtesy toward everyone). DeMolay teaches that courtesy is not to be reserved for expedient purposes, but serves as a foundational social grace. This begins in the home where children are expected to show courtesy to their parents and siblings. It extends from there to the stranger, the aged, women, friends, and all with whom we come into contact. It is this courtesy that brings a warm feeling and a smile and makes this life more pleasant for others as it lights the pathway before us. The cultivation of courtesy is to produce a refinement in the young man so that his courtesy is natural rather than artificial.

Growth in courteous behavior (and the other cardinal virtues) requires practice. In DeMolay, our young men learn proper decorum during chapter meetings. They learn Roberts Rules of Order, respectful speech when dissenting in a debate, and protocol on how to introduce oneself, guests, and visiting dignitaries. DeMolays also learn respect for each other and how to communicate effectively without resorting to name-calling or foul language, neither of which is tolerated in our meetings or activities.
